Trump's second administration is dismantling federal corruption enforcement while simultaneously pardoning over a dozen elected officials convicted of corruption crimes, signaling indifference to public corruption. The Justice Department's Public Integrity Section has been gutted from 35-40 attorneys to just two, dropping investigations from 175-200 to around 20. Simultaneously, NATO tensions hit historic lows as Trump threatens troop withdrawals and annexation of allied territory, while Florida's controversial Everglades detention center may close early after costing the state nearly $1.4 billion annually. Trump has pardoned at least 15 former elected officials convicted or charged with corruption crimes since returning to office, including a Las Vegas councilwoman who stole $70,000 from police memorial donations.
